Yes, you guessed it, Christmas is just around the corner and don't we know it because the shops are jammed packed with everything to do with the Christmas season.
James and I had a bit of fun this afternoon when we went shopping, we set off all the musical Christmas animals and had a good laugh at some of the corny but cute songs they were singing.
My favourite was a dog with long ears that sang "Rocking Around the Christmas Tree" with its ears flapping up and down and it's mouth miming to the words.
By the way, we weren't the only ones laughing, there were a few other people doing the same thing.
It was so hot today! I couldn't believe it, it got to 33 degrees at Penrith - I almost wished it was cold again. The weirdest thing was that this time last week we were dressed in winter woolies because it was cold, raining and foggy.
This morning we cemented in the back couple of circular steps leading onto the lawn. I am going to do a mosaic tile pattern on them tomorrow. The funny part of the whole thing was our darling Bacci tiptoeing on the wet cement having a great time and then the little shit came inside with wet cement paws and decided to decorate the whole house with his grey paw prints. Nice one! Now I have to wash all the floors.
Have to warn you about the next segment of this post - because it's an ADVERTISEMENT!!!
CAMPER FOR SALE!
Anyone? We have an ACT pop top camper for sale, rock-bottom bargain price of only $2200AU.
You guessed it we are selling our camper because James wants to buy a camper trailer - his Christmas wish! Personally, I think it's going backwards.
Usually you start with a tent, then upgrade to a camper trailer then a pop top camper then a caravan then a top range motor home then a holiday house - right?
Wrong!!!! We mountain people do things a bit different, if you know what I mean, wink, wink!
I thought buying a country retreat would be nice but James is dead set keen on his camper trailer.
He wants one from Marlin, a dinky di Aussie owned and operated small camper trailer manufacturing company from Woollongong NSW. Really nice bunch of guys and they DO make great quality campers.
I just heard a rumor that some people I know (won't mention names) has already put up their Christmas tree -
What a gorgeous bunch of Christmas elves I've never seen!
Sorry Brianna, but Uncle Sonny says you look like me with that hair style! What can I say but you're one gorgeous chick!
And last but not least, Happy Anniversary to Natalie & Jim on the day that they first met. Hope today was just as hot!!!
Cheers,
Marieanne
